ROYAL VISIT TO WESTMINSTER FALL.---Ott Saturday the Duke and Duchess of KENT, with their attendants, made a visit to Westminster Hall, for the purpose of in,sßestiog the House of Par liament nod the Courts of Law. The new Chair for the Speaker attracted the particular attention of the Royal Party. It elegantly covered with green. The Chair, once filled by our venerable Monarch in the House of Peers, lops also been repaired. 'The scarlet draperies and s l otting are all new, and the House was never seen to more advantage. The Royal Duke and Duchess next inspected the Courts of King's Bench and Chan cery, where the Crowns and Regalia, displayed by the ancient figures over the Bench, having been newly gilt, make a brilliant appearance. It was the intention of their Royal Highnesses to inspect Westminster -.Abbey, but the, clay being too far advanced for cloe. As'etvatigw, I.bey did not c:o to that venerable ectitice.'

Amongst the Nobility, &c. in York, during the week, the following have been observed ! his Grace the Duke of Leeds, Marquis of Carmarthen, Earl Fitzwilliam, Earl of Harewood, Lord Lascelles, M.

" It requires, however, a radical change in the mode_of conducting impeachments, before , this most grieVous evil can he removed. There ought to be a limited time between the period for pre ferring the charges before the High Court of Par liament and the final tklivery of the sentence, beyond which no trial should be protracted. At all events, no prorogation of the House of Lords ought to take place until the trial should be over. - Another regulation,. essential to the due admi nistration of justice, is, that the Court should he subjected to the same toles as other Crimival Courts,—so far as respects the delivery of their verdict,—they ought not to separate, after the defence is closed, until the verdict has been pro nounced. The high character which Mr. Hastings bore; the eminent services which he had rendered to his country ; his malty virtues, both public and private ; all combined to render his acquittal a source of satisfaction to a great majority of the people; while it heightened the public feeling at the oppression which he had endured by the un precedented length of iris trial."* Fruni GIFFORD'S Life of Mr. PITT. HOP INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK, AUG. 24.—There has been about 150 Pockets of new Hops at market ; the s.amples generally speaking are pretty fine and good for first pickings, some few are mouldy, and they are offering them at 12/, but the current prices are from' 141. to 161. 16s. We are sorry to say we have not a brisk sale for them. Yearling Hops are full 40s. per cwt. lower than they were a for night since.---The duty is at 135,0001. MAIDSTONE, AUG.24.—Hop-picking has gene-. rally commenced in this nei 4 iihourhood, and the report is, that they come down very well, anti weigh heavy ; the red mould is rapidly spreading in some grounds, Which occasions many planteis to begin picking earlier than they would have done, but in most places they improve both in quality and size. The number Kt' hands employed is, we believe, beyond all precedent, some idea of which may be formed, when we state that Mr. Ellis, alone, has upwards of 3500 pickers engaged in his plantations ; the roads during the last week have been swarming with them, many of whom have come from the remotest parts of England for this .purpose.
